Tech CEO's Tragic Stage Fall Claims Life at Company's Anniversary Celebration
Sanjay Shah, CEO of Vistex, a Chicago tech firm, died in a tragic stage fall during the company's 25th anniversary celebration in India. The accident occurred when a faux hot air balloon carrying Shah and the company's president collapsed, causing them to fall about 20 feet to the stage below. Shah, an Indian immigrant who founded Vistex in 1999, was known for his philanthropy and as the former owner of the Trump Tower penthouse in Chicago. He had built Vistex into an international company with over 2,000 employees and $250 million in annual revenue.
